Reader Reviews
This book offers probably the quickest way to get your head around what is basically the best DTP packages out there. It covers all of the major productivity tips that are not obvious from the interface or the help system. While some readers may not like the methodical style that essentially walks you through every single feature, I personally found this provided the most effective way of understanding functionality. I've read other books that take the approach of employing features to achieve a task - and while this is useful, I've found it leaves you short when trying to find some arcane button or menu to get something done. In this book, you get to thoroughly understand every single menu option, keyboard shortcut and panel, so there's really no mystery at all. If you are relatively comfortable with Microsoft Word, you should find that 10-20 hours of study will make you a highly proficient user of InDesign.
